Warning: Explicit Language It's honestly exhausting to live in a world that only accepts a partial version of who I am, as if I'm living in a simulation. And even if I had the mask off, you wouldn't want to see every part of me. It's so awkward playing these stupid mind games. It's exhausting and soul sucking. Now let me clarify something blatantly obvious, and that is, not everyone is fake. But at times, even the most genuine appearing souls can show a bit of superficiality that can slip under the radar. For instance, certain YouTubers like MrBeast have not had drama up until just recently in 2024. What you see of me from this website is a subjective blueprint- however you interpret my articles is entirely yours to decide. It's the reason why I've not been posting in this website for a little while. How does one even tackle the topic of authenticity when having to mask? This is just an observation but I've come up with theories on why people have become more disconnected than ever.

The Enshittification of People

People have become more distant than ever before.

I can't speak about certain issues because people are ingrained in their beliefs.

It's becoming ever harder than ever to find people who are open-minded and willing to engage in a conversation. I attribute it to the fact that people are becoming more superficial and wanting the high of getting validation more than ever. I value honesty and integrity more than anything else, yet people tend to distance from that in favour of professionalism. Why should I contribute to a society that is this superficial and unwilling to start an open and honest conversation about things? Why do things have to be sugarcoated all the time? Even when I started this personal branding of my website, I couldn't believe that I had to do this in the first place.

Ghosting

Honestly, fuck being ghosted.

Whether it's through employment or through a friend, ghosting is a pain to deal with.

Ghosting is such a common thing now, especially through employment. I've dedicated my time to making the necessary documents to get this job, yet they don't give me any improvement or feedback to help. The fact that people can't make the time to respond and give valuable feedback is astonishing, and I don't like that.

Lack of Listening and Critical Thinking Skills

I struggle with this a lot, and I can relate...

When someone is too nice at the start, it's most likely too good to be true.

I'm trying my best.
